2014 Water Supply Management and Drought Preparation Overview for District 40

This summary outlines the current water supply situation in District 40 amidst ongoing drought conditions. With Folsom Lake's water levels representing only two-thirds of the normal supply, proactive measures such as groundwater banking and conservation programs are being emphasized. The projected water demand for 2014 stands at 55,100 AF, leading to a potential deficit. Strategies to meet this demand will include purchasing dry year water and implementing mandatory conservation measures. Outreach initiatives aim to promote water-saving practices and engage the community in conservation efforts.
